Last year I got him a few shirts and a $30 razor, and he got me an ipad! Whoops! this year I'm going all out and getting him a ps4! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1127120 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 19:09:37 +0000 jhd 1127120@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are buying a house so probably won't do anything big. We aren't good at gifts anyway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126977 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 17:46:21 +0000 chopsuey 1126977@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: Dyson is good!

Two years ago, I gifted him a tablet, and he proposed. We've always gone overboard.</p> <p>However, this is our first holiday season with LO, and our financial situation has shifted. We will likely focus on her, and just surprise each other with something small, or inexpensive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126921 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 17:12:14 +0000 chopsuey 1126921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: which vacuum are you eyeballing?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126918 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 17:11:48 +0000 chopsuey 1126918@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We buy whatever we want during the year, so during the holidays we don't exchange gifts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126916 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 17:11:01 +0000 Ash 1126916@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd like to but he's so hard to buy for!<br /> I'm due around Thanksgiving so I should probably figure something out now if we're going to exchange. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126892 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 16:54:55 +0000 boots 1126892@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I doubt it.

Not sure what to get him though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126824 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 16:13:59 +0000 Smurfette 1126824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!! We are getting a new couch but will do something so we have something to open on Christmas morning </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126823 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 16:13:52 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1126823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup! I love christmas shopping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126821 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 16:12:48 +0000 artsyfartsy 1126821@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We usually agree on something small, and then DH surprises me with a pair of diamond earrings on Christmas morning.</p> <p>Turns me into the bad guy who got him a $25 gift. Lol<br /> Look at me complaining. Hahahaha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126818 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 16:11:24 +0000 Mae 1126818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>definitely! We're always most excited for our gift from each other so it is something I would definitely not want to skip :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126816 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 16:11:08 +0000 teamjse 1126816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Probably not this year since we decided to go on vaca the day after Xmas. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126798 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 16:02:20 +0000 Bookish 1126798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Probably something small. We normally do, but this year we really want to invest in a new set of pots and pans, so that will be our big present to each other. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126794 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 16:01:19 +0000 IRunForFun 1126794@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe. We usually do but we're trying to save money right now. If we do, we'll set a limit to how much each of us can spend. Or I might suggest buying ourselves a joint gift. Hmmm... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126792 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 15:59:49 +0000 pui 1126792@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We usually do. We usually open gifts at DH's parents house and I feel silly giving and receiving gifts from everyone but not having one for my DH. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126786 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 15:58:56 +0000 shinymama 1126786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We usually do, but this year we gifted ourselves a new mattress {in September}! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126783 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 15:58:06 +0000 pinkcupcake 1126783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We haven't exchanged gifts in so long! Like @Mrs. Lemon-Lime: we share finances so it seems kinda silly.... plus we would see the transaction and have a heads up ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126781 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 15:57:32 +0000 mrs. bird 1126781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Of course! I love buying gifts! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126773 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 15:56:02 +0000 Caly 1126773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We love giving each other Christmas gifts! DH is an especially wonderful gift picker outter &amp; always does an amazing &amp; thoughtful job. We don't do gifts for our birthdays or anniversary (we usually just go out for a nice dinner, etc) so Christmas is when we really do it up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126771 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 15:55:56 +0000 prettylizy 1126771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: omg I want a Roomba this year for xmas!! We usually exchange and this is at the top of my list. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126762 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 15:53:49 +0000 swedishfish 1126762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We always exchange gifts. That reminds me that we need to set a limit for this year's gifts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126758 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 15:52:31 +0000 Coopersmama 1126758@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do. And we are very predictable. We tell each other exactly what we want. Very unromantic but fine with my practical side :) same for birthdays. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126749 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 15:50:31 +0000 lovehoneybee 1126749@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, because I like gift-giving. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126740 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 15:47:44 +0000 dolphin 1126740@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Probably not, although DH is a much better gift giver than I am. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/will-you-exchange-holiday-gifts-with-your-so#post-1126737 Wed, 02 Oct 2013 15:46:27 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1126737@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I actually have something I want this year, but probably not. Qe share our finances so it seems silly to gift me something out of my (our) own money. </p>
